Hi, I'm a dog walker for the eastside, Bellevue, Kenneydale, Renton and surrounding areas.
I'll come to your home and take your dog(s) for a walk or a potty break.
I am not the kind of dog walker that takes 6 dogs at a time. I will give your dog all of the attention. I will walk up to 2 dogs at a time from the same household.
My hours that are listed are only guidelines. Hours depend on your needs. I am licensed, bonded & insured and certified in first aid.
Please look at my website for all of the information.
Thanks for looking!

Ascii our pup just loves Kelley. The moment they met it was quite apparent that Kelley has a way with our four legged friends. Ascii can be shy with new people and tends to hide a bit - not this time, she walked right up and then walked alongside Kelley as she came into our home.
Kelley takes the time to 'get' the personality of your pet and gives consistent feedback. I highly recommend her services.– Andrea

Kelley is great with my little girl. She is very patient and tender. She updates me every time she sees her and lets me know if anything unusal. I feel relaxed knowing that my baby is being taken care of the way I would.

I used 4 Paws and a Wag over the Christmas break when I needed someone to take care of my cat (not much of a wag from the cat, tho). The service was excellent. I am using her again this week to take care of my cat and my new rescued dog.
Highly recommended.– Andy

Kelley is GREAT! I just started using her services a few weeks ago and am so happy to know my little guy is in great hands while I am away at work. I get lots of updates and sometimes even pictures. I recently adopted my dog and we are still working out some confidence issues but Kelley is super patient and supportive and now my dog loves her and is excited to see her every day! I would recommend Kelley to all my friends. :)
